Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a circuit for separating the synchronisation signal from a composite video signal. The circuit includes a stage for aligning the synchronisation pulse background level with the earth potential (Vss), a stage for detecting the signal blanking level (Vsup) and a comparator (AD6) for comparing the aligned video signal (Sv') with a value intermediate between the synch background level and the blanking level. The detection circuit comprises a second comparator (AD5) charging or discharging a capacitor (C4) depending on the sign of the voltage between its inputs. The ratio Ic/Id between the values of charging current and discharging current is chosen (around 8) to obtain the correct Vsup value on the second input of the comparator (AD5). <IMAGE>
